《Problems to be solved by the invention》 For this reason, for example, apartment complexes where there is no resident manager are often small in size and occupied by married couples who both work. In such a situation, we deal with the situation when someone is absent by leaving parcels such as courier services with the neighbor's house or sending them by a specified date, but if the neighbor is also absent, the delivery will have to be made again, and the specified date will be delayed. In some cases, the patient had to wait at home all day, which was extremely troublesome.

The present invention has been made in view of the above circumstances, and its object is to provide a parcel receiving device that can reliably receive parcels even when unattended.

<Means for Solving the Problems> In order to achieve the above object, the parcel receiving device of the present invention includes a storage box with a door that can be installed next to the entrance to store parcels, and a receipt confirmation stamp. A stamping slot for inserting and removing paper, a locking device provided on the door of the storage box, and an automatic locking device that automatically locks when the door is closed and stamping paper is placed in the slot. It consists of a locking device and a handheld key that unlocks the automatic locking device. When the storage box is opened with the handheld key and closed, a sheet of paper is inserted into the stamping slot and the receipt is stamped, and the locking device is locked. It will become.

<<Operation>> In the above configuration, first the door of the storage box is opened and the delivery person places the package inside. Then, the door is closed, a piece of paper for receiving the receipt stamp is inserted into the slot, and the stamp slot stamps the stamp on the paper in the same way as a time card. This stamping slot and the auto-lock device work together to lock the door of the storage box.

The recipient of the package uses the key to unlock the auto-lock device.

This allows you to take out the items inside the storage box, and then leave the door in a state where it can be opened freely.

<<Examples>> Hereinafter, preferred embodiments of the present invention will be described in detail with reference to the drawings.

Fig. 1 shows the general appearance of the storage box 1. The storage box 1 is large enough to store small items inside, has a storage capacity that can hold about the size of a box of oranges, and has a storage space deep inside the top surface. A stamping slot 2 is provided with a slot for inserting paper in the same way as a time card, and the front is a door that can be opened and closed with a hinge. A hand key 4 is provided.

Such a storage box 1 is fixedly installed near the entrance door 5.

The door of the storage box 1 is equipped with an automatic locking device 3, which is adapted to operate in conjunction with the stamping action when the stamping paper is inserted into the slot.

That is, when the door of the storage box 1 is closed and the receipt stamp is stamped in the stamping slot 2, the auto-lock device 3 is activated and the lock is completed so that the door of the storage box 1 cannot be opened. .

To explain this series of operations as shown in Figure 2, first of all, the door of storage box 1 is normally in a state where it can be opened and closed freely, and at this time the delivery person opens the door of storage box 1 and carries the package inside. Put in. After closing the door, a piece of paper is inserted into the stamping slot 2 to receive the receipt stamp, and when the stamping operation is completed, the paper is pulled out. At this point, the auto-lock device 3 is activated and the storage box 1 is The door is locked.

The recipient unlocks the auto-lock device 3 by operating the key 4 at hand, opens the door by hand, and takes out the luggage in the storage box 1. In this way, the door of the storage box 1 returns to its initial state where it can be freely opened and closed.

<<Effects>> As explained in detail above, according to the parcel receiving device of the present invention, the parcel receiving device is equipped with a locking device that is interlocked with a stamping slot in which a receipt stamp is stamped by inserting and pulling out a receipt confirmation stamping paper. A storage box for storing luggage is installed next to the entrance, so when the luggage is stored inside, the door is closed, and a receipt stamp is obtained from the stamp slot, only the person in possession of the key can open the storage box.
